Roberta Jean Zadrowski of Hopewell Township passed away on March 26th, 2025, surrounded by love and warmth at her residence. She was preceded in death by her loving parents, Robert Sr. and Beatrice (Wilson) Young and her cherished daughter, Chrissie Angela Pieper. Her legacy lives on through her beloved husband, Edward J Zadrowski, with whom she shared nearly 48 years of marriage. Together, they raised their devoted son, David Michael (Connie) Catron. Roberta’s joy was multiplied by the blessings of her grandchildren, Amanda (Chris) Finney, Megan (the late Charlie) Schergaroth, and Jeffrey Pieper, and she was overjoyed to be a great-grandmother to Silas.

Roberta’s journey began in Aliquippa, where she was raised. She later graduated from Aliquippa High School. She exemplified lifelong learning by returning to school in her late 40s. Her pursuit of knowledge led her to earn a degree in Phlebotomy, after which she completed her internship at the Oakland VA Hospital in Pittsburgh.

Roberta traveled to various clinics within Beaver and Allegheny Counties, touching the lives of countless individuals with her skill and compassion. Upon retiring, she continued to contribute to the community through her work at the Airport Office Park for Building Service Cleaning Co.

She was an avid crocheter, who crafted countless baby blankets, prayer shawls, and bookmarks, each a symbol of her care. Her creations were not just items of warmth and beauty, but tangible expressions of her love and thoughtfulness.

She was also a devout member of the Wildwood Chapel Church in Aliquippa. Roberta’s faith was a beacon that guided her through life. She lived her beliefs through acts of kindness and her presence in the congregation was a source of comfort and inspiration to many.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, April 12th at 11 a.m. at Wildwood Chapel, 2850 Jack Street, Aliquippa with Pastor Rick Liptak, officiating.

The family has requested in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Roberta’s memory to Wildwood Chapel, 2850 Jack Street, Aliquippa, PA, 15001.
